Consistent quality grand rounds and/or conferences presented.

Evidence of community teaching.

Presentations given at regional or national family medicine meetings.

Preference should be given to an STFM member when possible.

While we realize that not all residency programs provide the full range of teaching opportunities that we have enumerated, we believe the resident recipient should fulfill as many of the criteria as possible to be considered an exemplary future teacher.

No more than one award may be given per residency program, but it need not be given each year.

Faculty shall select their program's recipient and then complete this online formto request a certificate for the resident you have chosen to receive this honor.

STFM will email you a certificate you can print out and frame. You will be responsible for presenting the certificate to your award winner.
